I don't see PocketLab listed on the Edu Apps (eduappcenter.com) website. But, that doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't an integration. You would need to reach out to PocketLab directly to see if they have any kind of LTI integration with the Canvas LMS (Learning Management System). Generally speaking, many LTIs are configured at the Canvas account level vs. the course level. So, you'd want to probably get your school's Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team involved in the conversations, too, if a LTI external tool existed.
I hope this helps in some way.

Both exams required Respondus LockDown Browser and were restricted to specific IP addresses. In both cases, the students were…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
